heartfelt condolences
Deep grief expression
Heartfelt condolences is a conventional expression of sympathy offered to someone who has experienced a loss, especially a death.
The phrase emphasizes sincerity—that the sympathy comes from genuine feeling rather than mere obligation: Please accept my heartfelt condolences on the loss of your mother.
It appears in cards, speeches, and formal communications, though its very conventionality can make it feel formulaic.
